    It wasn't a proper match. It is a get people interested in 3-gun/mulitgun from the long gun stand point rather than from the pistol angle. Hense no shooting on the move, it was a taster activity not a real match.

    It was an intro shoot FFS.

    Level matches have someone competent and familiar with the rules set targets so you raise a pointless argument regarding this example

    All the other stuff can be read in the IPSC rule book handed out on RO or Holster cse.
    Entering a match unprepared regarding rules is a competitors fault. No one else's.

    Maybe you should read a rule book on how not to be a dick all the time.
    Might take you a while to get thru tho. Bonus for us as it might keep you away from the forum awhile.

    if link don't work here is what it says
    AUCKLAND COUNCIL DECIDES SHOOTING AND CAMPING ARE ILLEGAL

    Auckland Council has changed how it interprets the Resource Management Act, by denying that there is a provision for some level of discharge under section 5.5.41 of the act. It has recently
    revoked a certificate of compliance for the Auckland Shooting Club on the basis that there "may be" discharge of contaminants, despite a High Court ruling that the activity is allowed, and processes in place to ensure that no discharge will occur. Auckland Council was required by the High Court to simply reconsider the issue of the certificate taking into account the discharge permitted under the act.

    On 19 December of last year, Auckland Council wrote in a letter that the Auckland Shooting Club ranges “..may need a consent to discharge contaminants in the long term, at this stage there is no evidence of any discharge to trigger the need for a discharge consent.”

    However, Auckland Council has reversed its own interpretation that it has applied to all permitted activities until now.

    The RMA prohibits any discharge unless there is a specific rule. As Auckland Council has decided on its own that the only rule that allows for discharge up to a certain level has no meaning, there is no provision for any activity that has a small discharge. This means that legally Auckland Council can’t ‘give you a pass’ because a discharge is small. By its own interpretation,
    Auckland Council no longer has a legal basis for allowing even small discharges and must require a consent for any discharge. Auckland Council has now made many past-times illegal for
    New Zealanders in the Auckland region.

    The result of this Auckland Council decision is that no minimum discharge is allowed without a consent. This means that no matter where you live in Auckland the following will require a
    resouce consent for every property on which they are conducted:
    • pest control shooting (e.g. possums);
    • duck shooting;
    • other shooting for hunting purposes;
    • target shooting of any kind;
    • camping
    • painting your house;
    • building where there is any run-off- e.g. from concrete slabs;
    • etc.
    There will be many other things that you now cannot do without a resource consent. Using Wet and Forget? - Forget It. This will now need a resource consent. The application fee alone for a
    discharge resource consent is $11,500, and you will need consultant reports and be required to pay any other council costs. All discharge consents will also require iwi consultation.

    It is a bloody sight bigger now since the seven councils merged. Essentially cost to coast from Welsford in the North to Pukekohe in the South. A complete and utter Shemozel.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    The so-called "Super City"... much the same way as impacted fecal matter is a super turd.

    I fought against the addition of "all locations where shooting had taken place" to this list:

    Hazardous Activities and Industries List (HAIL) | Ministry for the Environment

    Would have made most of Rural Land "Potentially Contaminated" so not just an Auckland thing.

    It's PC madness...
